Ian Munsick Leaps Into Exuberant Next Chapter, Exclaiming “Geronimo”

January 30, 2026

Wyoming native Ian Munsick is weaving together the themes of western reverence and love in his latest song, “Geronimo,” available everywhere now (via WEST TO THE REST/Triple Tigers Records). Listen BELOW.

Written by Munsick, Devin Dawson and Mike Robinson, and produced by Munsick and Robinson, “Geronimo” follows the narrator’s journey overcoming a fear of love and diving headfirst into it.

“Something tells me this is gonna be a big one…,” Munsick shared upon the news of the song’s release earlier this week. “No word personifies the feeling of partnering with a new label, in a new year, and welcoming in the next chapter better than ‘Geronimo.’ In this song you’ll find themes of my old music like land and love but this time, blanketed in a sonic texture that perfectly captures who I am as an artist. Here’s to the new age… geronimo!!!”

“Geronimo” is Munsick’s first release under WEST TO THE REST RECORDS/Triple Tigers Records. It's also Munsick's first music release off his next project since he arrived in April 2025 with his third studio album, Eagle Feather, which Holler praised for its "expansive tracks, atmospheric anthems," and Rolling Stone noted “is shaped by the landscape of the West, the stories of Native Americans, and the romantic idea of the cowboy.”

Munsick, who has built his loyal fanbase from the ground up to selling out venues across the country, is readying his Eagle Flies Free Tour, which will kick off on February 13 in Charlotte, N.C. With additional stops in Atlanta, Ga.; Bozeman, Mont.; Portland, Ore. and more, Munsick will be joined by a rotating lineup of special guests including Lanie Gardner, Ben Haggard, Tyler Nance and Jake Worthington.

MØL CELEBRATE ALBUM RELEASE WITH NEW SINGLE/VIDEO 'HUD' DREAMCRUSH OUT NOW

January 30, 2026

Danish alt-metal luminists MØL have released their third studio album DREAMCRUSH via Nuclear Blast Records and to celebrate have unveiled new single/video, 'Hud'.

The album follows a striking sequence of singles from the brooding pull of 'Garland' and the urgent drive of 'Young' to the cathartic force of 'CRUSH', culminating today in the release of 'Hud', an immersive, shadow tinged track that plunges listeners into the record’s tense otherworldly atmosphere.
Across DREAMCRUSH, MØL sharpen their signature fusion of crushing heaviness and ethereal textures, delivering a sound that is at once unrelenting and eerily luminous.

Check out the video for ‘Hud’ below:

Order and listen to DREAMCRUSH here: https://moel.bfan.link/dreamcrush

Following the critically acclaimed Jord (2019) and Diorama (2021), MØL’s latest opus, DREAMCRUSH, sees the band's sound continue to evolve as they embrace new horizons, as a collective and as individuals. Drawing on influences from My Bloody Valentine, Cocteau Twins and Smashing Pumpkins, the album delves into recurring themes of belonging, resilience and finding a sense of home within oneself. By weaving melody into even their sharpest, most jagged moments, the band emerge with their most soul-stirring work to date.

DREAMCRUSH explores the precarious balance between hope and burden: dreams can sustain you, give you something to believe in - but the weight of expectation, the burden of reality can also mean that such dreams can become oppressive; they can just as easily shatter you. In amongst clouds of unfathomable loss and grief, the album offers rays of almost unbearable hope - a reminder that we can keep on dreaming despite ourselves.

MØL's latest offering delivers a record that is as merciless as it is tender, one that challenges, uplifts and lingers, a reminder that even in the heaviest darkness, there is a light worth chasing.

MØL now take DREAMCRUSH across Europe and the UK this February with support from Tayne and Cold Night For Alligators, as the band continue to push deeper into their own atmospheric and uncharted creative world both on record and through their live shows.

Tickets are available here: https://ffm.live/moeldk-tour

MØL are:
Ken Lund Klejs - drums
Holger Rumph Frost - bass
Kim Song Sternkopf - vocals
Sigurd Kehlet - guitars
Nicolai Busse - guitars

sace6 Announce Sumerian Records Signing and Release New Track "ego" with Official Music Video

January 29, 2026

Enigmatic, genre-bending R&B-metal duo sace6 have today announced signing with their new record label home, Sumerian Records. In celebration of the partnership, they have released their new track "ego" and the accompanying official music video. Shapeshifting musical boundaries by pairing crushing heaviness, sensual vocals and crisp production, "ego" speaks to the unease of being in the hands of someone whose overreaching intensity never fully loosens its grip. When asked about today's signing news and release, sace6 shared:

"For us, Sumerian was always more than a label, they were a movement. Growing up, they were a gateway into a world that we were always certain we would find ourselves existing in, side by side with the music and the artists that raised us. Sumerian has been a home to endless icons and we are forever grateful to reside here and begin our own prodigal story.

Our latest single, “ego,” evokes the presence of someone assertive beyond necessity—overbearing even after they’ve already won you over, leaving hesitation in their wake."

Stream "ego" at the link here, and watch the official music video below.

Dödsrit + Lamp of Murmuur Announce Co-Headlining EU Tour + 2026 Festival Appearances

January 29, 2026

Enigmatic black metal legions DÖDSRIT and LAMP OF MURMUUR have teamed up for a co-headlining tour throughout Europe this spring! The Regal Vengeance Tour (Part 1) will embark on its path of destruction starting first from April 3 - 5 and then will resume its onslaught from May 13 - 24. In addition, both bands will be dominating the European festival circuit this year, with more festivals TBA! The full itinerary can be found below while tickets can be found HERE.

In addition, Lamp of Murmuur will also be embarking on the To Dream of Rhûn Europe 2026 headliner in EU/UK from April 24 - May 2, with support from Tolkienian black metal masters ONE OF NINE. Tickets can be found HERE.

Lamp of Murmuur will be touring in support of 2025's critically-acclaimed album, 'The Dreaming Prince in Ecstasy,' which was release by Wolves of Hades and named among the greatest metal albums of the year by Decibel Magazine (#10), Brooklyn Vegan, Heavy Metal Philosophy (#5), Knotfest, and many more.

Dödsrit’s 2024 fourth studio album, ‘Nocturnal Will,’ was also ranked among the best metal records of 2024, landing coveted placements by Decibel Magazine (#19), No Clean Singing, Bandcamp, Metal Hammer UK (#31), Banger TV, and more!

From the shadowy desolated woods of Borlänge, Sweden and the rusting urban lechery of Amsterdam, The Netherlands comes Dödsrit, a maelstrom of soul tearing blackness and cacophony.

Dödsrit entered the worldly realms in 2017 as a sole venture that would produce both the self-titled debut in that same year and the subsequent 'Spirit Crusher' in 2018. Following this second full-length, the project expanded into a full-fledged group with the addition of three new members, a change that would sharpen the band’s course into the potent force that stands today.

Whether painting landscapes of storming riffs, crescendos of pulsing intensity, or immersing mournful wails, Dödsrit’s crushing devotion to the visceral element in men and nature allured from its very inception. While rooted in the Black Metal milieu, the group’s sonic traits expand wide and beyond, from repetitive and atmospheric upsurges of misty ambiance to melancholic yet triumphant infused outbreaks, a pallet of sorts that provides this journey with an uproar of emotions. Such features find their most precise outcome on their latest opus, 'Nocturnal Will', a step forward in the direction of the abyss, and a definitive illustration of Dödsrit’s treacherous display of ghastly emanations for and to the strife and suffering of our feeble world, and it’s nocturnal flame.

Line-up:

Christoffer Öster - Guitar & Vocals

Georgios Maxouris - Guitar & Vocals

Peter Rebel - Guitar

Jelle Soolsma - Bass

AGNOSTIC FRONT Unleashes Lyric Video For "You Say" And Announces European Leg Of "Echoes In Eternity" Tour

January 29, 2026

NYC’s legendary hardcore pioneers AGNOSTIC FRONT have released the official lyric video for “You Say”, off of their latest album, Echoes In Eternity. Ferocious and energetic, the song captures the band's trademark spirit of defiance in the face of hypocrisy. Powerful gang vocals drive this anthem of revolt, underpinned by charging guitars and thundering drums. The message is clear: AGNOSTIC FRONT refuses to cave to the injustices that plague modern society.

Vocalist Roger Miret comments: "'YOU SAY' is a war cry against the normalization of corruption and empty promises. Whether it be governments, corporations, or straight up con artists, they all have the same interests.... Their own! Our message has always been and will be 'F**K YOU' to these entities, and to hold them accountable.”

AGNOSTIC FRONT has also announced the highly-anticipated European leg of their "Echoes In Eternity" Tour, with dates in Germany, the Netherlands, Switzerland, Italy, France, Poland, Hungary, the Czech Republic, Austria, and Belgium. The tour features special guests WISDOM IN CHAINS and RAW BRIGADE.

With decades of influence on the global hardcore scene, AGNOSTIC FRONT continue to uphold their legacy as one of the most vital and uncompromising voices in punk music. Echoes in Eternity reaffirms their status as cultural torchbearers, channeling the same spirit that sparked from New York’s Lower East Side to inspire generations worldwide.

About AGNOSTIC FRONT:
Founded in 1982, AGNOSTIC FRONT stand among the most esteemed pioneers of the hardcore genre. No band comes close in sonic and socio authenticity and sincerity, where the struggles of survival on the streets have quite literally given life to a sound that remains as impactful today as it was over four decades ago. AGNOSTIC FRONT‘s battering, socially critical sounds serve as the foundation of true New York hardcore and helped initiate the emergence of crossover thrash. Following a slew of pummeling offerings, the band, led by the inimitable roar of Roger Miret and Vinnie Stigma's legendary charismatic guitar playing, continue to showcase unapologetically honest lyrics and signature aggression in Echoes in Eternity.

Ian Munsick Partners with Triple Tigers Records, Sets “Geronimo” for 1/30

January 28, 2026

When Ian Munsick departed from Warner Music Nashville in September, the Wyoming native founded his own label under which his music is released: WEST TO THE REST RECORDS. Today, Ian Munsick and his WEST TO THE REST RECORDS are announcing a partnership with Triple Tigers Records beginning with new song, “Geronimo,” available on January 30. Pre-save HERE.

“Every artist dreams of partnering with a record label that not only understands their vision, but creates a clear, passionate plan on how to reach that destination. After I played some of my new music for the team at Triple Tigers, they told me exactly what songs they thought could achieve that vision,” Munsick gleams. “In a day in age where labels often rely on third parties for opinions that may or may not eventually lead to action, it was so refreshing to hear the words ‘that song is a hit’ when playing a guitar/vocal work tape for the label heads. Results are never guaranteed in the music industry, but I am confident that the combination of this new era of Ian Munsick music and the strategic workhorse of Triple Tigers will result in a true 50/50 partnership made in country and western heaven.”

“Ian Munsick is the ultimate artist: unique identifiable voice, compelling songs and perspective, established brand and a massive fanbase that is growing by leaps and bounds. We are ecstatic to partner with Ian and are ready to take country music by storm,” Triple Tigers co-presidents Kevin Herring and Annie Ortmeier shared in a joint statement.

Written by Munsick, Devin Dawson and Mike Robinson and produced by Munsick and Robinson, “Geronimo” is Munsick’s first music release off his next project since he arrived in April 2025 with his third studio album, Eagle Feather, which Holler praised for its "expansive tracks, atmospheric anthems," and Rolling Stone noted “is shaped by the landscape of the West, the stories of Native Americans, and the romantic idea of the cowboy.”

“Something tells me this is gonna be a big one…,” Munsick adds. “No word personifies the feeling of partnering with a new label, in a new year, and welcoming in the next chapter better than ‘Geronimo.’ In this song you’ll find themes of my old music like land and love but this time, blanketed in a sonic texture that perfectly captures who I am as an artist. It’s familiar yet eclectic, modern yet traditional, raw yet refined and with your help, it may very well be the biggest song I’ve ever released. Here’s to the new age… geronimo!!!”

Munsick, who has built his loyal fanbase from the ground up to selling out venues across the country, is readying his Eagle Flies Free Tour, which will kick off on February 13 in Charlotte, N.C. With additional stops in Atlanta, Ga.; Bozeman, Mont.; Portland, Ore. and more, Munsick will be joined by a rotating lineup of special guests including Lanie Gardner, Ben Haggard, Tyler Nance and Jake Worthington.

From thunderous drums, blistering guitar work and lyrics that don’t flinch, fans can expect a roaring setlist stacked with classics, deep cuts and the kind of onstage band chemistry and electrifying stage presence that can’t be replicated.

Career-defining anthems to crowd-roaring singalongs, every night promises to be a full-throttle reminder that rock-n-roll is alive and well and best served up loud, outrageous and a little dangerous.

Flesh Prison Signs To Papercut Recordings & Drops New Single & Video; "Sent Through A Woodchipper"

January 28, 2026

Fast-ascending Toronto deathcore outfit Flesh Prison releases "Sent Through a Woodchipper" today via Papercut Recordings, marking their first single since signing with the label. The track arrives alongside a music video and signals a heavier, more focused direction for the band. Fans can stream the new track HERE and watch the accompanying music video below.

"Sent Through a Woodchipper" channels the raw aggression of OG MySpace-era deathcore. Lyrically, the track confronts retribution and justice against those who commit heinous acts. Mixed and mastered by Cody Stewart, the song delivers the band's most visceral work to date.

On today's release, the band share

"'Sent Through a Woodchipper' is a fast, violent release of anger rooted in the raw energy of the OG MySpace deathcore era," the band shares. "Lyrically, the song explores retribution and justice against those who commit heinous acts (genocide, displacement, and abuses of power). Sonically, we wanted something aggressive, relentless, and unapologetic, with no excess or restraint. Working with Cody Stewart on the mix and master helped push the track to its heaviest and fullest form. Dropping this single and video as our first release with Paper Cut Recordings marks a new era for our band—heavier, angrier, and more focused than ever."

After releasing their debut EP in February 2025, Flesh Prison - Paul Padgett (vocals), Jesse McKay (guitar), Brett Wright (bass), and Matt Andrews (drums) - also announced today that they have signed to the recently formed artist-first independent label, Papercut Recordings. The band has accumulated 85,000 Spotify streams and 51,800 YouTube views in just over a year, maintaining consistent monthly listenership and peaking near 10,000 monthly listeners.

Flesh Prison hits the road this April with The Last Ten Seconds Of Life, Traitors, The Crimson Armada, and Nailed Shut, with dates in Quebec City (4/9), Montreal (4/10), and London, ON (4/12), with more to be announced.

ABOUT FLESH PRISON

The quartet has amassed 85,000 Spotify streams and 51,800 YouTube views since their debut EP released last year and began 2026 by announcing that they signed with Papercut Recordings.

HANABIE. Release New EP 'HOT TOPIC' via Sony Music Japan

January 28, 2026

It's a great day to be a HANABIE. fan! The rising Harajuku-core quartet have today released their latest EP 'HOT TOPIC' (via Sony Music Japan), the band's latest body of new music since 2024's 'Bucchigiri Tokyo' EP. When asked about the release, vocalist Yukina commented:

"We’ve put together another EP packed with a wide variety of songs this time around. With our new tracks “ICONIC” and “Tokimeki about you” I’d love it if everyone sang along and jumped around during the chorus—I can already picture the scene in my head! I can’t wait to perform these live at our shows. “GIRL’S TALK” is a song that captures who we are right now, just as we are. “Spicy Queen”looks back to our early days and reflects that original spirit. Both of these have already been released as singles, but they’re absolutely essential in bringing color and balance to 'HOT TOPIC'. As has become something of a tradition for us, we let ourselves go all out with one playful track on an album or EP—this time, it’s “Theme of hanabienchan”. I’d love to see the confused looks on everyone’s faces when this song comes on after listening to the other four tracks! Please enjoy this EP to the fullest."

Guitarist and vocalist Matsuri shared:

"An EP perfectly suited to kick off 2026 is finally complete! This EP includes three new tracks. “ICONIC” and “Tokimeki about you” are punchy tracks that is simple x electronic with playful elements. By embracing a side that is different from usual, we feel that a new side of HANABIE. was born. “Spicy Queen” bursts with initial full-throttle impulse. “GIRL’S TALK” is a glamorous, danceable track. Closing out 'HOT TOPIC' is “Theme of hanabienchan”. This EP delivers many different expressions of HANABIE., so please enjoy listening to it from start to finish!"

Bassist Hettsu added:

"The new EP 'HOT TOPIC' features 5 tracks—3 brand‑new songs plus the already released “GIRL’S TALK” and “Spicy Queen”. Among the new songs "ICONIC" and “Tokimeki about you", we challenged ourselves with song structures and genres unlike anything we've done before. “Tokimeki about you” is our first-ever straightforward love song as HANABIE., and a key feature is the groovy sound of the instrumental section. It's a track that we feel is great to move along to, so we hope everyone who comes to our live shows will enjoy it ♪ The fifth track, “Theme of hanabienchan.”, is the theme song for HANABIE.’s unofficial character, “Hanabienchan”. As our wild-card track that is in every EP or album, it finally makes its appearance here! There might just be a second installment if there is a good response...?? With our 10th-anniversary track "Spicy Queen", a more mature side of HANABIE. in "GIRL'S TALK", and three brand-new tracks with fresh styles, we feel this EP displays a new side of HANABIE."

HANABIE. drummer Chika also shared:

"Three out of the five tracks on this EP are brand-new! The third track, “Tokimeki about you”, is my personal favorite as the drummer. I focused on creating contrast and dynamics in the drum arrangement. I especially love the moment in the first chorus where the cymbals drop out, and the strength of the rhythm section throughout the song. The fifth track is a special one—I think it will get stuck in your head once you hear it. The first track “ICONIC” also has a music video, so be sure to check that out as well. Please also notice how there is a difference on the girl’s face between the left and right sides. We put a lot of effort into all aspects of this EP, from the songs to the cover art!"

North American fans will also have their chance to see the band's high-energy, inimitable live show on their first North American headliner beginning Friday, March 13 with Nekrogoblikon and Enterprise Earth as support. 'HOT TOPIC' is available now on all streaming platforms at the link here, and be sure to get your tickets here before they're all gone.

With a rapidly growing international following, HANABIE. is actively expanding their presence and making a bold statement on the global stage.

Motionless In White Return With New Single + Video "Afraid of the Dark"

January 28, 2026

"AFRAID OF THE DARK" connects MIW's past, present, and future — mixing metallic fury with electronic embellishments. The result is a fist-in-the-air anthem that will be instantly beloved by the Motionless faithful.

"20 years ago, I stepped into a tour van with my best friends, having no idea what was next every mile we drove down the road," says singer Chris Motionless, pulling back the curtain on the song's origin story, which is rooted in the band's own history. "Funny enough, we broke down two hours later in the AM hours in a snowstorm. We had to sleep on the floor of a rest stop on the side of the Interstate and wait what felt like forever for a tow truck. We were forced to cancel the first few shows of our first tour ever, and to figure out how to scrape up every cent we could to try and get the van fixed and get back on the road. Nothing was ever going to stop us. There was never a doubt that we would find a way to live out our biggest dream and set a precedent for anything standing in our way."

He continues, "On our 20-year anniversary, that spirit is burning just as hot as it was on that day. We refuse to settle, refuse to let any opposing force stop us from clawing our way up from hell, and we refuse to fear the dark of the unknown. I want the story of MIW to inspire anyone listening to not fear the unknown, but to run head first into it with everything they've got. This song is about taking control of your destiny and writing the script of your own future without any doubt or apprehension. For those of you who have been with us for any part of the last 20 years, this one is for you. If you mean it, you will make it."

Motionless In White have been going from strength to strength for two decades, and "AFRAID OF THE DARK" is proof of that fact.

The band will spend the spring on tour supporting Bring Me the Horizon, including a performance at Madison Square Garden and at Welcome to Rockville and Sonic Temple festivals.

ABOUT MOTIONLESS IN WHITE:
Motionless In White have always stood out from the crowd. Mirroring alternately brutal and breathtaking sonic artistry against elegant and enigmatic imagery, the Gold-certified, Scranton, PA quintet have organically drawn legions of fans under their spell since 2006. A steady grind has elevated them to arena headliner. After earning three straight Top 5 debuts on the Billboard Top Hard Rock Albums Chart, 2022's Scoring The End of the World bowed at #1 on the latter, in addition to securing the band's highest position on the Billboard 200 at #12. The LP notably spawned their second RIAA Gold-certified hit and first Active Rock #1, "Masterpiece," which has leapt towards the Platinum threshold. Insidious and innate versatility has enabled them to collaborate on popular tracks with everyone from Jonathan Davis of Korn and DOOM composer Mick Gordon to Illenium and Knocked Loose. Beyond sold-out headline tours and direct support slots for Bring Me The Horizon and Slipknot, the group host, curate, and headline their own Apocalypse Fest in their hometown of Scranton. Two decades into their career, these outliers prove to be as dynamic and dangerous as ever, with a slew of new releases on the horizon for Roadrunner Records. This era begins with the single "Afraid of the Dark," infusing tightly executed metalcore with gothic overtures, industrial grit, and an arrestingly uplifting message to "follow the light in your heart and be not afraid of the dark." Welcome to the next renaissance of Motionless In White — now.

DUSTIN LYNCH & CHASE RICE TEAM UP FOR RED ROCKS AMPHITHEATRE SHOW APRIL 22

January 27, 2026

Adding to his list of headlining iconic venues across the nation, MULTI-PLATINUM star Dustin Lynch today (1/27) announces that he and fellow MULTI-PLATINUM singer-songwriter Chase Rice are teaming up for a coheadlining show at RED ROCKS AMPHITHEATRE in Morrison, CO, on April 22. On sale to the general public on Friday (1/30) HERE, Stay Country Club members and Chase Rice Fan Club members will have exclusive first access to purchase presale tickets beginning tomorrow (1/28) at 10 a.m. MT.
“Red Rocks is such a legendary venue, I couldn’t be more pumped to be back - especially with my buddy Chase Rice joining me this time around,” shares Lynch. “I’m excited to partner with my friends over at Coors Banquet and help in their mission to support the Wildland Firefighter Foundation. This one’s going to be special, see y’all out there!”
Presented by Coors Banquet, a percentage of the ticket proceeds will benefit the Wildland Firefighter Foundation (WFF). Since 2014, Coors Banquet has donated more than $2 MILLION to the WFF.
With a milestone 10 number ones at country radio, Lynch’s latest single “Easy To Love,” is currently climbing the charts. Recently, the Grand Ole Opry star wrapped 2025 with an appearance on CBS’ The Road, joining Keith Urban as his on-stage partner and co-mentor during the Tulsa, Oklahoma episode.
Rice’s history of supporting the Wildland Firefighter Foundation together with Coors Banquet dates back several years, with the hitmaker even training alongside firefighters in Idaho as part of his involvement with the Protect Our Protectors campaign in 2022. Musically, Rice’s most recent critically acclaimed album, the independent release ELDORA, arrived in late 2025 as easily the most raw, unguarded expression of his talent to date – fittingly born in the afterglow of an epic show at Red Rocks the last time he played the iconic venue.

Full ticketing details for DUSTIN LYNCH CHASE RICE RED ROCKS AMPHITHEATRE can be found HERE.

ABOUT DUSTIN LYNCH:
Dustin Lynch has “built one of the most consistent recording careers in modern country music” (Billboard), achieving 10 numbers ones; four Top 5 albums; MULTI-PLATINUM status with 10 RIAA-certified singles; and tallying over 5 BILLION cumulative global streams. Rolling out new music beginning with the chill summer jam “Easy To Love,” Dustin marked his milestone 10th number one with “Chevrolet (feat. Jelly Roll)” from his sixth studio album Killed The Cowboy (BBR Music Group/BMG Nashville). The follow-up to Blue In The Sky, which delivered the history-making 2X PLATINUM, six-week number one “Thinking ‘Bout You (feat. MacKenzie Porter)”—the most-played song at Country radio in 2022, landing at number one on Mediabase and number two on the Billboard Year-End Country Airplay charts—also featured hits number one “Stars Like Confetti” and “Party Mode.” Lynch has headlined packed venues to sold-out crowds like his Killed The Cowboy Tour, in addition to touring with country’s biggest names including Kane Brown, Luke Bryan, Brad Paisley, and Blake Shelton. Hosting his see-and-be-seen pool parties for the last decade, Lynch marked Wynn Nightlife’s first-ever country music artist residency in Las Vegas with his 2025 club set. Most recently, he expanded his sound with the Club Set Remixes EP—a genre-blending project featuring high-energy dance remixes of his biggest hits by top DJs including MOONLGHT and MC4D. With his latest release, Lynch unveils his first EDM original, “Home To You,” a track with MC4D that carries his unmistakable country undertone into the global dance scene. Since his PLATINUM breakout “Cowboys and Angels” in 2012, the Tennessee native has earned industry recognition as a Grand Ole Opry member, as well as high-profile nominations for the Academy of Country Music Awards, American Music Awards, Billboard Music Awards, iHeartRadio Music Awards, and CMT Music Awards.

KEEP UP WITH DUSTIN LYNCH

ABOUT CHASE RICE:

Few artists have had the enduring impact on country music Chase Rice can claim – and fewer still possess the courage to leave it in the past, and blaze a new trail. A true singer-songwriter with success in both disciplines, Rice’s 15-year career has taken the Florida-born North Carolina native to chart peaks and global stages … but with his eighth studio album, ELDORA, his only destination is the American West. A 10x Platinum artist who burst onto the country scene as a Diamond certified songwriter (“Cruise”), while hits like “Drinkin’ Beer. Talkin’ God. Amen.” and “Eyes On You” helped Rice post two No. 1’s at Country Radio, igniting a movement through chest-thumping euphoria and bold romantic passion. He sold out international tours and shared stadium billing with Garth Brooks and Kenny Chesney, before leaving the major label system for good. Now, with full independence and over 3 billion streams to his credit, ELDORA signals Rice’s dedication to the storytelling craft. Written in Colorado and inspired by a hidden mountainside town, the 12-song set is easily the most raw, unguarded expression of Rice’s talent to date – born in the afterglow of an epic show at the Red Rocks Amphitheatre. Working hand-in-hand with co-writer/producer Oscar Charles, Rice adopts the unfiltered, rough-hewn approach of an off-the-grid maverick, both embodying the Western mystique, and boldly going where few of his stature would dare.

UADA Announces New Acoustic Album, 'Interwoven,' Unveils Haunting Nirvana Cover

January 27, 2026

Enigmatic black metal masters UADA are pleased to now reveal that their upcoming acoustic album, 'Interwoven,' will be released on April 10 via Eisenwald Records. The album represents an acoustic journey tracing one song from each chapter of UADA's discography as well as various covers from the bands who've inspired them. In celebration, the band is now sharing a haunting version of NIRVANA's "Something in the Way," which can be found along with a video below.

The video was filmed and edited by Karl Whinnery and directed by Jake Superchi, with Evan Gandy serving as the co-director of photography.

UADA comments, "When UADA was formed, a rule was set: no covers, in pursuit of carving a wholly independent voice. With 'Interwoven,' we allowed ourselves to bend that rule. Recruiting a cellist for this project created a rare alignment—a moment to pay homage to one of the most formative and regional influences of my youth. While staying close to the original arrangement, we allowed our interpretation to take on its own bleak, glacial weight—one that echoes through the song’s timeless sorrow."

'Interwoven' is now available for pre-orders HERE.

In addition, UADA has joined forces with industrial metal artist MORTIIS for a very special co-headliner, featuring exclusive anniversary sets and supporting performances by Jerome Reuter’s ROME and WRAITH KNIGHT. UADA will be performing their seminal 2016 debut album 'Devoid of Light' in its entirety + a special CERMONIAL CASTINGS 30-year anniversary set featuring Wraith Knight. In addition, MORTIIS shall be performing songs from his groundbreaking 2001 full-length, 'The Smell Of Rain,' along with other volumes of dystopian despair. The full itinerary can be found below while tickets are now available HERE.

Moreover, after much demand from fans, UADA will be returning to Milwaukee Metal Fest for the second time since leaving their mark during the 2024 edition. The festival will take place at The Rave/Eagle's Club from June 4 - 7, with UADA performing on the 7th. More info and tickets can be found HERE.

"More than a sonic experiment, this album was a deliberate act of vulnerability. It was a personal and collective trial - a chance to step outside the acquainted shadows and embrace the uncertain light. The earliest intent was to craft something primitive and ritualistic, echoing the ancestral tones of ancient Pagan folk. Vocally, we anticipated a palette of whispers, chants, and throat singing. There was never a plan to explore clean, melodic singing - until an improvised vocal passage in “Djinn” revealed something unexpected. That unscripted moment sparked the foundation of what would become this album. With the band’s enthusiastic support, the recording process began - without a script, without rehearsal, and with full commitment to spontaneity and truth."

Cryptopsy Headlining 2026 Decibel Magazine Tour

January 27, 2026

After nearly three and a half decades of brutal technical supremacy, Cryptopsy are still insatiable. The most vile band in death metal finished off last year by cracking year-end lists at Decibel, Metal Injection, BangerTV, No Clean Singing and other outlets with their latest Billboard-shaking album An Insatiable Violence. Now, as they continue to bang heads on their current European tour, the Canadian legends are proud to announce another new milestone in their Hall of Fame career.

Today, Cryptopsy are announcing that they are headlining The Decibel Magazine Tour in 2026. The band’s set during the tour’s deadly 13th run will celebrate both the coronation of An Insatiable Violence and the 30th anniversary of their Decibel Hall of Fame-inducted album None So Vile. Joining them for all 21 dates are Necrot, Fulci and Blood Monolith.

“Between the strength of the material on their latest release, An Insatiable Violence, and the anniversary celebration of their landmark, None So Vile, 2026 is clearly the year of Peak Cryptopsy”, Decibel Magazine’s Editor-In-Chief Albert Mudrian says. “We couldn’t be more honored to bring the band’s paramount present and potent past together to headline this year’s Decibel Magazine Tour”.

“We are honored to headline the 13th expedition of The Decibel Magazine Tour”, Cryptopsy’s vocalist Matt McGachy says. “Headlining the Decibel Tour while celebrating the 30th anniversary of None So Vile is surreal for us. That record changed everything, and getting to rip through our favorite songs from it every night - alongside a bunch of newer Cryptopsy tracks from An Insatiable Violence - feels like honoring where we came from while showing exactly where we are now. These shows alongside our friends in Necrot, Fulci and Blood Monolith are going to be violent, cathartic and unforgettable”.

Tickets for The Decibel Magazine Tour 2026 go on sale this Friday, January 30 at 10 am local time.

Cryptopsy recognize that not every death metal band sticks around long enough to win a Canadian Grammy 30 years into their career. The cover art for An Insatiable Violence was created by the late, great vocalist Martin Lacroix. "The album artwork has got to be one of the most important things to us!”, the band says. “Martin Lacroix was one of our vocalists, one of our great friends and one of the nicest people that anyone could have the privilege to meet. We really wish he was here with us to share this moment. His perfect smile would say it all! Rest in peace brother".

With Cryptopsy’s latest career renaissance showing no signs of slowing down, the recent accolades are only the beginning. An Insatiable Violence reaches a new peak in a career loaded with them.

SCREAM AT THE SKY Have Officially Announced Their Midwest In"SIN"eration 2026 Tour

January 27, 2026

SCREAM AT THE SKY are turning temptation into gasoline as they announce their upcoming In“SIN”eration Tour, setting stages ablaze across February and March with a run that promises heat, sweat, and pure rock ‘n’ roll danger.

This isn’t just a tour — it’s an invitation. An invitation to step into the shadows, turn the volume past reason, and surrender to a band that thrives on tension, release, and raw connection. Night after night, SCREAM AT THE SKY bring a sound that’s equal parts seductive and savage, blending crushing riffs, soaring vocals, and a pulse you feel long after the lights

go down.

The in“SIN”eration Tour is built for packed rooms, locked eyes, and moments where the crowd and the band blur into one. It’s loud. It’s intimate. It’s unapologetically sinful. Every song hits like a slow burn that explodes without warning — the kind of live experience you don’t scroll past, you live inside.

With new fire behind them and a reputation for commanding the stage, SCREAM AT THE SKYare ready to leave their mark city by city. Fans should expect heavy grooves, dangerous hooks, and performances that feel more like a confession than a concert.

ABOUT BODYSNATCHER:

There are many clichés about battling adversity. That if you fall down, you get back up again. That what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger. That it’s the journey that’s important, not the end result. That the struggle is worth it, that you need to suffer to make great art. It’s not always true, of course, but Hell Is Here, Hell Is Home (via MNRK Heavy) certainly makes a strong case for that argument. The fourth full-length from Melbourne, FL deathcore outfit Bodysnatcher, it follows 2024’s brutal Will Putney-produced EP, Vile Conduct and serves up another powerful barrage of uncompromising deathcore across 10 incredible tracks that see the four-piece—Kyle Medina (vocals), Kyle Carter (guitar), Kyle Shope (bass) and Chris Whited (drums)—turn the catharsis up as loud and as visceral as it will go.

Of course, that’s nothing new for the band. If you’ve heard Vile Conduct, or any of the three albums that preceded it—2017’s Death of Me, 2020’s The Heavy Void or 2022’s Bleed-Abide—you’ll know this is a band who have always pitted themselves against personal tragedy, who have fought on individual levels against the dark depths of a despair (often inspired by their own experiences of death). Hell Is Here, Hell Is Home is no less harrowing.
